Chapter 18 No Discount No Forest

The heroic little knight Nightmare rode on the big black horse of Jinshan galloping in the lively bazaar, along the way Jinshan stopped from time to time to buy all kinds of novelty gadgets to give to Nightmare, and when he arrived at the place where the puppet show was performed, Jinshan's ears and neck were already full of various small commodities. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The stage of the puppet show is set on a small carriage, and the puppet show is performed by a very kind old man with a blue blindfold on his right eye, which is painted like thunder and lightning.

The old man first leaned his upper body out of the carriage window and waved to the audience, and then retreated into the carriage, and at the same time, in front of the simple background cloth, several delicately made dolls fell from above, and the joints of the puppets were connected to silver threads as thin as hair.

The plot of "Angel vs. Demon King" is very simple, the archangel Gabriel saved the goddess Sophia who was captured by the demon king, fought with all kinds of powerful monsters alone, and finally defeated the demon king and rescued the goddess Sophia, but the goddess has been sealed by the demon king and fell into an eternal sleep, and finally the archangel Gabriel chose to seal himself forever and guard his goddess forever.

The story is simple, touching, and connotative, coupled with the dubbing of the old man behind the background cloth, the audience around him is addicted, of course, most of the audience are elementary school students. However, Jin Shan has no intention of paying attention to this wonderful story, because this puppet show gives Jin Shan an indescribable sense of weirdness.

First, although it is a puppet show, Jin Shan does not feel the pause of the puppets when they move, to be precise, the movements of these puppets are infinitely close to real people, and the silver threads connected to their joints are more like nerves, responsible for conveying brain instructions;

After reading the story of "Angel vs. Demon King", Jin Shan realized that this is simply the adapted version of the shocking battle, the most important mystery in the original book, and the root of all appearances.

But why would anyone change the facts to this, and also change one of the protagonists of the story to the fallen Monkey King, the head of the Seven Demon Saints.

Besides, your puppet manipulation skills are too hanging, and it looks like a 3D cartoon.

After the puppet show was over, and the old man with blue eyes came out for a curtain call, Jin Shan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he instantly remembered someone.

"It turned out to be him, but I didn't expect him to come to the Demon Command Republic, most of the historical facts of the holy war should be investigated, and after investigating the pure-blooded humans, he should be basically close to the final truth. Thinking of the most cunning guy in the original book, Jin Shan felt a pain in the egg.

You must not contact him, otherwise you will be sold and help him count the money. Dispelling the idea of knowing this important character, Jin Shan stood in the distance and looked at the carriage window, and dozens of puppets identical to the characters of the puppet show were laid out.

Jin Shan saw Ike and Alan squeezing in the front, the local tyrant Alan scattered the gold coins, and directly bought a large number of puppets, holding them with two hands, with a smile on his face, Ike also took out a puppet of Queen Sophia and grabbed it in the air and fiddled, seeing that the puppet's movements were not as good as the old man's play, his face was full of anger.

Jin Shan waited until Alan and Ike had left before coming to the window. Just now, the little Loria was fascinated by watching the puppet show, and from time to time excitedly grabbed Jin Shan's hair, and after the puppet show was watched, he stared at the puppet without blinking, and Jin Shan's head hurt when he grabbed it with his little hand.

Jin Shan instantly understood Xiao Lori's thoughts, and didn't care about avoiding contact with the old man with blue eyes, and walked directly to the window. Look at the list price, "I'll go, it's so expensive!"

A puppet costs 20 silver coins, and a set costs 2 gold coins. Jin Shan couldn't hold back the resentment in his heart anymore, slapped the windowsill, and scolded: "Profiteer, how can your puppet be sold so expensive, is it a gold puppet, or a silver puppet, dare to sell it so expensive, aren't you afraid that the price bureau will come to investigate?"

The old man with blue eyes looked at the angry Jin Shan and the nightmare on his neck with a smile, and a trace of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes, Jin Shan was angry and did not notice the change in the old man.

"Youth, the old puppet material is precious, well-made, even the colored paint is the top color produced in the Holy Demon Continent, and 20 silver coins are the price of conscience. "Don't look at the old man, his eloquence is good, and his words almost wipe out Jinshan's anger.

"And if you buy a set of 10 puppets, you can get a 9% discount, only 1 gold coin and 80 silver coins. Puppets with such a large collection value and such a cheap price can't be found even with lanterns. The old man held a puppet and looked like a treasure, and he saw Jinshan feel a chill.

"If the boy is not satisfied with the price of the puppet, the old man recommends that you buy a lite version outside, only 20 copper coins for a piece, and only two silver coins for a complete set, but there is no discount, and the price is low and the profit is thin. ”

Hearing the old man's words, Jin Shan looked at a large string of simple puppets hanging outside the window. It's not just simple clothing, it's simply simple. The puppets hanging outside are not only black and ugly, but they also don't have a thread, and the clothes are simply inferior pigments applied to the puppets.

"I said, is the Price Bureau really allowed to sell such pornographic things?" Seeing Chi Guoguo's simple version of the puppet, Jin Shan was sweating profusely.

"Needless to say, let's set 180. Jin Shan directly took out two gold coins and put them on the windowsill, on the one hand, the nightmare on his neck had been staring at the puppet in front of the window just now; on the other hand, the simple version was not discounted, and the collector's edition was discounted, even if he bought Jinshan, he had to buy a discounted one, and if he didn't take advantage of the old man, Jinshan was not happy.

The old man smiled and took away the gold coins, and took out a small box to put a set of puppets in front of Jin Shan. Then with a raise of both hands, the box was handed directly to the hand of the nightmare on his neck.

"Thank you, old man. Wei is also very polite, and happily took the puppet set and did not forget to thank the old man.

The gold mountain below was bitter: "Obviously I bought it for you, Wei, why are you thanking this old man, I'm Santa Claus, okay?" Looking at the white-haired old man, Jin Shan suddenly woke up: "Okay, you are an old man with leftovers, you are awesome." ”

"Thank you for your patronage and welcome to your next visit. The old man bowed his head, but Jin Shan doubted that the old man had bent down, and the old man who only showed his head in front of the window looked like a clown who had been thrown a cake.

"Just your sister, you won't be killed. Jin Shan covered his face like a madman and turned around to leave, just turned his left foot, and his body was stunned. "No, this old man hasn't asked me for any money yet. Remembering that the old man had received two gold coins from him but had not given change, Jin Shan hurriedly withdrew his turned left foot.

"Hey, old man, you haven't forgotten anything!" Jin Shan raised his eyebrows and looked like he was collecting debts.

"Although the old man is not young, his memory is still good, young man, the old man does not have a son like you. ”

"Damn, I'm talking about money, I'm talking about change!" Jin Shan slapped the windowsill, if his eyes could kill, the old man would have been cut by Jin Shan with a thousand knives at this moment.

"No change, two gold coins are just right. The old man was not afraid of the small universe that was burning in Jin Shan's eyes, and he also made an innocent expression.

"A puppet is 20 silver coins, and a set of 10 is two gold coins, and you say that you are 9% off, which is 80 silver coins for one gold coin. I gave you two gold coins, shouldn't you ask me for 20 silver coins? Although I didn't go to school, I'm not mentally retarded. Jin Shan finished speaking in a huff, staring at the old man and panting, like an angry bull.

"Ao, it turns out that your name is Jin Shan, old and decrepit, Ai, please take care of you when you meet for the first time. ”

"To the point, why don't you ask me for change!" Jin Shan was not afraid of the old man's teasing again, and today he made up his mind to ask for an explanation.

"A set of puppets is indeed 1 gold coin and 80 silver coins, but the boy, the old decay gives you a suit, the set is on the one hand, the pretending is the other hand, and the packaging also counts as money, no more, no less, 20 silver coins, boy, you don't suffer a loss. After the old man finished speaking, he looked like he took it for granted, and he saw that Jin Shan was going to get drunk.

"The old man is right, I take it, I take it. Jin Shan finally decided to succumb to the old man's obscenity, and turned away directly with his fists clasped into fists.

"Welcome next time, boy!" the old man shouted to Jinshan from afar. But Jin Shan can't hear it anymore, his values are collapsed at this moment, I didn't expect the meaning of the suit to be a set and packaging, I'll go, it's really up.

Ai watched Jin Shan walk away with the nightmare, and the inexplicable meaning in his eyes became more and more intense. "I didn't expect that there would be demon planters who would fall into the Demon Guide Republic, that's right, she feels exactly the same as the "eye" of the organization, and this news will definitely sell for a good price. After watching Jin Shan disappear from view, Ai Cai packed up the carriage.

"The journey has just begun, and the next step should be the legendary Demon Capital. Looking in the direction of the Demon Capital, Ai drove the carriage slowly.

"Old fox, really old fox, I shouldn't have contact with this old fox, it's not good and it's a mess. Holding the nightmare, Jin Shan muttered all the way.

"Uncle Jinshan, what are you talking about. "Nightmare's hearing is good, and even the subtle muttering of Jinshan can be heard.

"It's nothing, I'm thinking about how I'll tell your mom about the puppet set later. Jin Shan hurriedly thought of an excuse, and only after he finished saying that he found out, yes, how to explain the puppet suit?

"Then what should I do, Uncle Jinshan, the puppet set is really expensive, and my mother will definitely not agree to take it if she knows. When Wei heard Jin Shan's words, he was distressed, and he was full of reluctance with his hands around the box.

"This one, it's better to say that it's a lottery, you tell your mother, Uncle Jinshan accompanied you to see a puppet show, just in time for the event, you grabbed a lottery ticket and directly drew a first prize, the prize is a puppet set, how about it? Jin Shan suddenly sighed at his ingenuity.

"Uncle Jinshan is so powerful, he actually came up with such a good reason, my mother will definitely believe it when she hears it. Wei was very appreciative of Jin Shan's suggestion, and it seemed that any problem could be perfectly solved in the hands of Uncle Jin Shan.

"Haha, Wei is also very good, you can sell all the flowers, Wei is a genius little businessman!" Jin Shan did not forget to praise Xiao Lori, and the gifts were exchanged.

The two of them talked and laughed all the way until 3 p.m. before returning home. Standing in front of the door, Jin Shan put down the nightmare on his neck, took off the small objects on his ears and neck, and handed them to the nightmare.

"Wei, you can go in by yourself, Uncle Jinshan won't go in today, and in a week, Uncle Jinshan will come to see you, okay?"

"Really, Uncle Jinshan, will you come to see Nightmare in a week?" Nightmare tilted his little head, his big eyes were a little red, and a few golden beans slipped out of the corners of his eyes, full of full attachment.

"Of course, Wei is a good baby, don't cry, next time you come, Uncle Jinshan will buy you a lot of delicious food, guarantee that you haven't eaten it." Jin Shan squatted down and gently wiped away the tears of the nightmare with his hands.

"Nightmare don't want to be delicious, Nightmare only needs Uncle Jinshan to come to see Nightmare, Nightmare is a good baby, don't cry, don't cry. Little Lori pursed her mouth desperately, but she couldn't stop the golden bean that sneaked out.

"Okay, okay, Nightmare, Uncle is gone, eat and sleep well, see you next week." Jin Shan didn't dare to stay too long, he was afraid that he couldn't help but choose to stay, he still had to improve his strength, and he also had to help Muse fulfill her wish, so he couldn't stay, he needed to keep walking, until one day he had the strength to protect this world.

Little Lori looked at the back of Jin Shan's distant disappearance, and finally wiped her tears and knocked on the pure white door. Happiness is supposed to be something worth waiting for, and since you have a promise, why not be willing to wait.
